On *any* of the newsgroups I frequent. But they're coming through thick

It takes longer to get there than it does to go to London!

And since you turned up your nose at York last year...

York *is* away down South.

But I don't remember you saying anything about October. Are you serious?
Anyone else up for a York ping in October?

You put it out there so to speak asking for destinations and stuff and I
said I could do October this year. For next year I need to plan ahead
rather early in the year before I book my holidays. Then I can put York as
a holiday destination.

Don't forget Monty Python. The BBC seems to have done.

If you really want to turn your nose up, go to India and visit the town
where they prepare and process Asafœtida! From seven miles away you can
smell it, and yet you only put two or so pinches in a curry for four -
and no cider fex like with Monosodium Glutamate.

"Ehyyy seyyy! Don't you mean MSG?"

That's right! I can never remember the name!

Ours is oop north from here. That cathedral will knock your socks off. I
think it's part of a special Mass to prevent people's boots getting
caught in the crossfire!
